My family took in the new Lego Movie this weekend. Keep in mind we are all over 15, so it was weird going to what looked to be a total kids movie...which it is, but it is just as much a movie for all adults, especially if you have ever played with Legos as a kid. It was absolutely brilliant. I loved this movie, and was laughing the entire time, as was my wife and kids. What I love even more is when a movie includes bloopers and outtakes from the movie. Sometimes they are even funnier than the actual movie. The Lego Movie, has some very funny outtakes available to watch, but not at the end after the credits roll, like other movies. It's very interesting how they came about because the movie is animated.

Big Brothers and Sisters, Bowl for Kids Sake is Tuesday the 25th and our team is below our goal of $1000. Thank you to those who have donated so far, but I still need your help. Every little bit counts so even if you can only afford $5, it will help us reach our goal to helping a child find a big brother or sister here in the Treasure Valley who really needs one.

For the Most part, I don't have a lot in common with world class Olympic athletes. Yes I have visited Coeur d'Alene Idaho, birthplace of Slopestyle gold Medal winner Sage Kotsenburg, but until this week, that was pretty much the end of our similarities. Until I found out we had this in common.

Becoming a world class Olympic athlete is not cheap. In fact, it is very, very, expensive. The Farrington Family of Bellevue Idaho, home to Idaho's newest Gold Medal winner, knows this firsthand. They had to figure out a way to help their daughter pay for her Olympic dream. This is one thing that I can say that I have in common with this one Olympic athlete, and that is the similar way that we raised money to reach our goals.

I recently received an interesting share on my Facebook page. Whether you love Facebook, or hate it and everything it stands for, you will have to agree with me, that in this one instance, it is being used for good. This post share hits close to home for me because as a father of a child with a mild case of Aspergers, I know how this mom feels.

I was lucky enough to be able to take off from work for the past couple days to head to the Eldorado Hotel, Casino in Reno with some friends to do a little gambling...drinking....eating....playing poker....black jack.....drinking and playing craps....oh yeah, we also go to meet Golf Legend and self proclaimed addictive personality John Daly.

I was reading an article in one of my handy dandy favorite mens' magazine that really hit home and got me to thinking recently. It was about things we do only because it's "COOL" or popular ....and we would never, ever, ever, never do it otherwise? What about you? Do you do things that when you think about it, are just plain dumb, and the only real reason that you did it is because you thought it was cool...or your friends were all doing it? Things like this.....
